Human Rights Advocacy: Putting it into Action at the UN

December 2, 2020
12:30 PM - 1:30 PM
America/New_York
Online Event

This interactive session with CLS Human Rights Practitioner in Residence, Anna Macdonald, will explore what makes human rights advocacy successful at the UN. Where do you start? How do you know if an advocacy meeting has been successful? What about countries that are hostile to your ideas? Anna will share tips and strategies from over 20 years of successful international advocacy and discuss some of the new challenges facing advocates in the current context of onslaughts on human rights principles and the difficulties of influencing in a pandemic environment. Following Anna's presentation, we will invite attendees to turn on their cameras (if possible) and participate in discussion.
